Has Netgear removed firmware 1.0.1.90?
I do not see firmware 1.0.1.90 for download for RAX120. Has Netgear removed it? All I see is 1.0.0.84. Thanks, Arun

Hello Nighthawk AX Community,
We have removed the the following firmware version off our support site. We currently have a trial firmware for the RAX120 and if you're interested, please send me a message.

No thanks, I will pass. Stability is extremely important to me. All my security cameras and alarm system and TVs and phones and laptops are connected via WiFi. In one year, typically 50TB of WiFi data passes through the router. Cannot have instability. 1.0.1.90 was really bad firmware. Glad that it was removed.
- avtellaSep 17, 2019ProdigyIf stability is key, unfortunately probably not best to get a new model (regardless of brand) so soon after release especially with a new WiFi standard that’s only now getting a final draft specification, so not everything maybe supported in earlier draft version based devices like this one. To top it off it takes a while for firmware to stabilize as some of the issues also need to be fixed by the actual chipset manufacturers themselves. Basically early adopters are paying to be testers.

for me i am always a beta tester for everything i will take some bugs just to get the latest futures
and if i see any bugs i just report them
- Retired_MemberSep 18, 2019Should we downgrade? I’m not really have any issues with got 90.
I wouldn’t mind trying the beta firmware. If it doesn’t brick the router.- abogrhenSep 18, 2019Guide
if 1.90 work for you with no problem just keep it
for me i had a problem with one wifi card that was dropping speed connection every 2H
in 0.84 the drops still happened but less frequently like every 5H
i am on 1.97 from this morning untill now there were 0 drops so far
you should wait for next stable to be on the safe said

I'd be interested in trying the trial firmware as I'm now testing 2 AX clients and the 1.0.1.90 firmware was not working well - randome speed drops to about 1/90th the speed till disconnect/reconnect. Firmware 1.0.0.84 is working well though.

Netgear,
VERY disappointing almost 6 months from 1.0.0.84 and two or three f/ws pulled during this duration. How about new firmware for wifi 6 certification?

Hi Chrisitan,
I would also like to try out the beta firmware. I did PM you a couple days ago but not sure if you check your inbox frequently. Thanks for any help.

Hello! Please send me the link for the Beta Rax20 firmware.
Thanks so much!

The 1.0.100 released and immediately I noticed under the "Basic" section you cant click on Internet setup or Wireless Settings, you can only get to the via "Advanced" tab. Looks like there is some formatting error which deleted the buttoons but left the UI placeholders for them. And the Nighthawk app still cant detect connected devices.
- LordlokiOct 05, 2019TutorI'd love to try the beta firmware. My rax120 drops to about 20mbps after it is up for 24 hours. I constantly have to reboot in order to get gigabit. Wan port aggregation on, if it matters.
